Vitacost 100% Pure Tea Tree Oil Description

Tea tree oil is a highly concentrated, undiluted extract that’s steam distilled from the leaves of the Melaleuca alternifolia tree. First used by the Australian aborigines in the 1700s, tea tree oil gained popularity in the early 1900s when Australian physicians began using it as a skin cleaner and protectant.

Tea tree oil is commonly used for aromatherapy practices such as massage, inhalation, full-body baths, hand/foot baths, facial steaming, facial masks, compresses, spritzers, perfumes and flavorings. It may also be used for household purposes such as room fragrance (using a diffuser or humidifier), laundry, cleaning, dish washing and more.

Note, this product does not have a dropper insert. If the plastic seal has adhered to the bottle opening, remove it and place it back in the cap.

How does tea tree oil support health?

Tea tree oil is often used for cleansing the skin, hair and scalp as well as for skin health.

Tea tree oil contains chemicals called terpenoids, which are naturally produced by the plant as a possible defense mechanism against predators. The main active constituent, terpinen-4-ol, appears to be responsible for the benefits of tea tree oil.

Good Tea Tree Oil
I am happy with the Vitacost brand of Tea Tree oil. I have the smaller bottles and a large bottle. The larger 4 fl oz bottle did not come with the little plastic dripper thing in the top but I just usually fill my smaller bottles with the bigger one. The smaller ones do have the dripper plug in the top.

Great product.
This product has so many uses! I put a teaspoon in my shampoo and conditioner. It really cleans my scalp and removes hairspray. I also put some in a squirt bottle with water to naturally clean bathroom and kitchen surfaces.
